(...) Cool hopper waggons Kevin! Those bottom sloped pieces really set it apart from the blue hopper set. -Harvey (23 years ago, 30-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott)

(...) Yeah, and I know first-hand how hard it is to get those inverse corner slopes. I have 4 red, 4 black, 4 light grey, and 2 blue (thanks recently to Jeff Brundige). And I still don't have any of the baseplates with cutout AND buffers. I only (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

(...) Thanks. I'm particularly pleased with that car. It's a perfect duplicate of the Blue Hopper, except the base plate. And it took a while to get those 4 inverse corner slopes. I also love the classic clean style of it's design. Play well. Tim (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

Hi, Yes, the nice thing about my red hoppers is they don't require any rare parts (like inverse corner slopes or 2x2 wall panels). I just used the 6x6 starwars quad inverse cutout slope dealy and it gives a nice hopper effect. You can make a lot of (...)

(...) Oh my goodness! There are 2 Metroliners in Ottawa and neither one belongs to me. And 2 Blue Hoppers and a 4555 too. I am so jealous. I like the row of red hoppers.
